Chocolate Chip Cookies (Annabel Langbein)
500g butter, softened 1 c sugar 1/2 c condensed milk 4 1/2 c flour 4 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp vanilla 500g chocolate, roughly chopped
Preheat the oven to 160C and line trays with baking paper.
Cream the butter and sugar well then add the condensed milk and vanilla. Stir in the chocolate, flour and baking powder. Put into the fridge for 15 mins to firm up a bit then roll into walnut sized pieces. Flatten with your hands then press down again with a fork to get that nice homemade effect.
Bake about 15 minutes until a golden brown. Leave on the tray for a few minutes then put the biscuits onto a rack to cool properly.

Yum.This looks so good.I think I will have to try it out.I have chocolate buttons here - do you think they would work or should I go down and buy a block of choc!I never really know if there is any difference!

I think if you can be bothered going out and buying a block of chocolate it'd be worth it.and you'll be pleased you did!

I think if you can be bothered going out and buying a block of chocolate it'd be worth it.and you'll be pleased you did! You'll get the randomly sized chunks of chocolate that way instead of uniformly sized buttons.

A kilo of fat! At that rate, it had better make about 600 biscuits, or it's a heart attack in waiting.

It does have 4.5 cups of flour.
I have a similar recipe, it only have 100 g of butter. But then it only has 1 cup of flour

KIWISNZ country Women's Institutes Cookery Book (1950 edition)
Cream ¼ lb butter and¼ cup sugar. Add 2 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk. Add 1 cup flour and 1teaspoon baking powder. Add chopped up 7d cake chocolate. Roll into balls and bake 15 to 20 minutes in a moderate oven.I don't know what 7d cake of chocolate is as this book is older than me, so I just add ever I have or what looks like a reasonable amount, I usually double this recipe. very nice.

Isn't that the good old Sante Biscuit recipe made larger from the humble Edmonds Cookbook, with choc chunks instead of choc chips!
